Ben Sira 2:8

8 You who fear the Lord, trust in him, and your reward will not be lost.

Ben Sira 2:8 In-Context

6 Trust in him, and he will help you; make your ways straight, and hope in him.
7 You who fear the Lord, wait for his mercy; do not stray, or else you may fall.
8 You who fear the Lord, trust in him, and your reward will not be lost.
9 You who fear the Lord, hope for good things, for lasting joy and mercy.
10 Consider the generations of old and see: has anyone trusted in the Lord and been disappointed? Or has anyone persevered in the fear of the Lord and been forsaken? Or has anyone called upon him and been neglected?
